Tried this recipe?Let us know how it was!
Used FAGE 2% plain Greek yogurt with great results. 30 min for my oven, crunchy/crispy outside and very tender inside. Fun and quick.
I Used plain Greek yogurt they were good. I’d make them again!
what would i do to get the outside of the bagel to not be crispy; to be more like lenders soft bagels?
I mean…they aren’t bagels. Dough ingredients aside, they need to be boiled in order to get the cheesy outside. I think it’s pretty whack to omit the defining characteristic of bagels and still call them that. I don’t know why, but I expected more from you.
Had an interesting experience just now with this recipe. My partner didn’t know that t means teaspoon. And because tsp was used elsewhere in the ingredients, they used tablespoons instead of teaspoons for the baking powder and salt. Maybe change the t’s to tbs? If it’s not too much trouble. Still giving 5 stars because I’ve made this a million times in a bunch of shapes and iterations and it’s fantastic!
Thank you for your recipe for making bread with less ingredients. It is both affordable and very tasty.
